"Fanorona"
is a game of strategy and considered the National Game of Madagascar. It
is a classic boardgame of tactical skill. It is said that Princes and Kings
have fallen because they could not stop playing. The object of the game
is to take all your opponent's pieces or to leave a position where they
have no moves. If neither player can do this, then the game is a draw.
The most common version of the game is the one most will know it by, which
is played on a 9 by 5 grid. Other variations use a 3 by 3, a 5 by 5 or
a 8 by 4 grid.
